The company positions itself as a trusted partner for entrepreneurs and business owners, emphasizing expert support across all facets of entrepreneurship. Their market presence is solidified by membership in recognized professional bodies such as IBR and ITAA and affiliation with the Nexia network. Technically, the website is built on Craft CMS and employs modern web technologies including JavaScript, CSS, and HTML5, with performance optimizations such as CDN usage (Cloudfront) and Google Tag Manager for analytics and marketing.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

1 finding rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. SSL/TLS

    TLS encrypts the connection and proves the site is really yours. Weak or expiring certificates trigger browser warnings and put traffic at risk.

    • High

      Weak Protocols Supported

      Server supports weak protocols: TLSv1.1

      What to do: Disable TLS 1.0, TLS 1.1, and all SSL versions

Results by check

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

VGD operates in the finance sector, targeting entrepreneurs and SMEs in Belgium. Their business model revolves around providing expert consultancy services across accounting, auditing, tax, legal, HR, and sustainability domains. The company leverages its membership in professional organizations and the Nexia network to enhance credibility and market reach. The website indicates a medium-sized enterprise with a strong regional footprint and a diversified service portfolio. Their digital presence supports lead generation through contact forms and newsletter subscriptions, supplemented by active social media engagement. The absence of direct e-commerce or transactional services suggests a B2B consultancy focus. Growth indicators include a dedicated jobs section and content marketing via blogs and podcasts, positioning VGD as a thought leader in their domain.

Security posture

The website demonstrates a good security posture with HTTPS enforced and secure form handling including CSRF tokens and Google reCAPTCHA v3 integration. Cookie consent is actively managed, aligning with GDPR requirements. However, the absence of explicit security headers such as X-Content-Type-Options and X-Frame-Options is a minor gap. No public security policy or incident response contact information is provided, which could be improved to enhance transparency and readiness. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the content. Overall, the security maturity is solid for a professional services website but could benefit from formalized security documentation and header enhancements.

Recommendations

  1. Implement and verify security headers like X-Content-Type-Options and X-Frame-Options to mitigate common web vulnerabilities.
  2. Publish a clear security policy and incident response contact details to improve transparency and preparedness.
  3. Consider adding a vulnerability disclosure policy or security.txt file to facilitate responsible reporting.
  4. Regularly audit third-party scripts and libraries to ensure no vulnerabilities are introduced.
  5. Enhance data retention disclosures related to analytics and marketing tools to strengthen privacy compliance.

Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
